Welcome to the Interaction
you're talking about Jared, so I'm not really arguing
against you. I'm just pointing out that there are some cases where it *is*
helpful -- even necessary -- to know where people are looking, and for how

am completely opposed to relying on the use of the Back button as a way to
get around completing a form. We may not be able to prevent it, but we *must*
use a means that does not require people to use it.

Cancel button. In this case, navigation is not specifically the user's
intent, and a link is not the appropriate mechanism for it.

learn, in Western culture, from the day they begin to learn to read. As
